We will stay in the great town of Missoula Montana, at the luxurious Double Tree Hotel right on the Clark Fork for four nights while we float the Clark Fork and the Bitterroot!

I can't be more emphatic about the quality of the 'rising trout/dry fly sight fishing' on the lower Clark Fork and the Bitterroot. Big wild rainbows and browns sip mayflies and caddis and zip into your backing. They call these rainbows "firecrackers" and they are considered some of the "hottest" fish in the West! This is the peak hatching and dry fly time, especially on the Bitterroot and Blackfoot!!

In the past we've hooked 30 plus fish per boat, per day - these sipping fish are 17 to 20 inches with some browns going to 23 inches. I've made special arrangements so that our floats start 9:00 A.M., and go till about 9:30 PM, 12+ hour floats are a rarity in the West where 9-5 is the rule. They include our mid afternoon rustic streamside alfresco dining right on the river with grilled elk, beef or chicken with salads, veggies and breads. A bottle of Merlot, Cabernet or Chardonnay (your choice), topped off with a nice cigar, if you wish - it always tastes better on the river.

After a well deserved streamside rest on the bank, if you like, it's back to sipping trout until dark. It is not a problem for those who want to get back earlier in the evening, just tell your guide and he will take you back. The Bitterroot, Clark Fork (along with the Missouri River and the Beaverhead) are simply the best dry fly 'sight fishing' venues in the world today! And don't sell the Blackfoot River short, it is the river made famous in the movie "A River Runs Through It". Another great feature is that - aside from our own party, you will rarely see another boat or wading angler on the Clark Fork the entire day, truly amazing! (Click here to see photos from the Clark Fork and Bitterroot). Clients will have the choice of fishing all 3 rivers or the one that is fishing best. Your call!
